I did a search on gardens and found The Japanese garden at Huntington Gardens in San Marino, California.

I viewed the NZ Creative Commons website and saw the increasing opportunities of the service which attract my attention:
These opportunities include:

• developing new ways to create and share content in a digital environment
• assisting the public of Aotearoa New Zealand to become more aware of and take up the opportunities offered by digital technology to create and circulate material across Aotearoa New Zealand and the world.

In Northcote team day today, if I am not mistaken, I learn that in future our libraries will be able to download audio books online with a lending period. Patrons are able to download them and if they download to their computers, the downloaded audio book will vanish after the lending period is over. But if the patrons download to their devices like MP3 or CDs, we have to trust them to utilize the "downloaded item" well, I mean not making copies for their friends and sell them to make own profit. Maybe they should be educated with Creative Commons knowledge?

The exercise instructions were very clear that enables me to find the Creative Commons icon on flickr easily but I have to say that many people are still not aware of the existence of Creative Commons.
